with colorwork, fair isle to be exact, and not happy with it, but tried it on the dog and he growls when I try to take it off of him, so starting over. It is not nearly long enough, the back is too wide, and there needs to be a collar, working on it, hoping he falls asleep and I can de-frock him!

Give us a hint! What's the design like? I've knitted 7 dog sweaters so far, usually starting with the Paton's basic dog coat and just adding my own stitch pattern, e.g., mosaic designs, intarsia, cables. And no, I don't have 7 dogs; I have just 2, but I've made sweaters for friends' and neighbors' dogs.

So sweet of you to consider your doggie's comfort by knitting him a sweater! You are a good doggie mommy! My dog came with a built in dog sweater...she's a Shih Tzu.

I bought coats for my hounds a few winters ago, during extreme cold weather...but they chewed them off themselves so quick it was ridiculous. What one dog couldn't chew off themselves, the other one finished the job.
